| Gaggle of Trees - A quilt I made based on a show on Simply Quilts. Began: 2001 Completed: 6/23/2005 |
Noah's Ark - A block of the month series by Curtis Boeringer. I began this quilt 5/19/2000 and got a tad upset because fabric designers came out with animal print fabrics a few months after I had all my blocks pieced. I sure wish I could have use those! I brought this UFO out of storage as it will make the perfect gift for my cousin name Genesis who will turn 2 this year. Of course the parents will have to hold onto this quilt for a few years as I used sequins and beads for animal eyes. Completed: 6/18/2005 |

Sewing Curves - I completed this quilt top the same day the book arrived in the mail. It too was a lot of fun. My goal that year was to attempts quilting techniques I'd been avoiding for years. Began: March 2002 Completed: May 2005 Size: 32 square inches |

Summer Midnight - I made this quilt from a free at the time block of the month by Beth Ferrier of Applewood Farm Publications. I enjoyed her process for making advance blocks very easy to piece. I choose to use raw edge appliqué to take advantage of the batik fabrics which has little to no fraying. This quilt was machine quilted by Sarah Cohen. Began 1/15/2004 Completed 4/15/2005 CLICK PHOTOS FOR LARGER VIEWS. Machine quilted by Sarah Cohen. UPDATE This quilt was juried into the 2005 AQS Quilt Expo in Nashville, TN. |
